Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify the canonical analysis of relationships between coping strategies and parental bonding with eating disorders in students. Methods: The method of the present study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population of the study included all female undergraduate students of Kosar University of Bojnord in the academic year 2019. The research sample consisted of 250 students who were selected by convenience sampling from all female students of Kosar University of Bojnord. To collect data from, Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26, 1982), Coping Inventory for Stressful Situation (CISS, 1994) and the Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI, 1979). The collected data were analyzed using canonical correlation. Results: The Results showed that components of parental banding, care (0.43, 0.42, and 0.43) and overprotection (0.39, 0.29, and 0.22) were positively related to eating disorders subscales (P<0.01) and, additionally, from coping strategies’ components emotion-oriented (0.12, 0.14, and 0.14) and avoidance-oriented coping (0.24, 0.22, and 0.16) had positive significant relationship with eating disorders (P<0.05). Canonical correlation also indicated the predictive role of parental bonding on eating disorders (P<0.001). Conclusion: It can be concluded that teaching adaptive coping strategies and parental involvement in treatment interventions can prevent and reduce eating disorders in students.
